Viral Artist RMR Signs With Warner Records; Drops New Single 'Dealer'
If you remember, an unknown artist named RMR took the internet by storm at end of February with his song ‘Rascal‘.
The song, which sampled Rascal Flatts’ ‘Bless the Broken Road’, was catchy with a sound borrowed a little from R&B and some from Country but no one really knew who he was and how the song suddenly came to blow up out of nowhere. The video featured a bunch of mask wearing men showing off their firearm collection, making the clip even more intriguing.
Today, it has been announced that RMR (pronounced Rumor) has signed a major label deal with Warner Records in a joint venture with CMNTY RCRDS (pronounced Community Records). Industry power players Phil Lawrence, Malik Rasheed, and Chief Johnson run CMNTY RCRDS which is described as a record label “at the cutting edge of marketing and music discovery.”
Along with the signing comes a new single named ‘Dealer’, accompanied by a music video shot at and around a beach. The Ism-produced beat features an Indian-influenced keys structure. Watch it above.
